  • Der erste Halo 2 Trailer überhaupt hat seinerzeit die Videospiel-Welt auf den Kopf gestellt: Das damals so hoch umjubelte Halo: Kampf um die Zukunft (Halo: Combat Evolved) sollte einen Nachfolger bekommen, Wahnsinn! Teile dieses Trailers haben es sogar in die Zwischensequenzen vom finalen Spiel geschafft, in leicht abgewandelter Version.

    • @wisdumcube
      @wisdumcube 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      ​@@LaurensPP It's because there was supposed to be a level on that Covenant ship in the background that Master Chief was supposed to sneak into, but it was scrapped when the game was falling behind schedule, it struggled to run on the original xbox, and the game had to be rebuilt in 9 months. The bomb became a convenient fix. Halo 2 is full of creative rewrites that definitely makes it much more divisive compared to Combat Evolved. Yes, we got some fun Seargent Johnson one-liners, but we also got a lot more goofy over-the-top shit. I miss the pacing, the atmosphere and mystery of the original game and I am sad we never got back to it in the series really. Halo 3 was mostly a more refined product overall, but it felt like a thematic retread and a greatest hits collection of moments.
      From early previews it felt like Halo 2 was raising the stakes in a different way and that was compelling and interesting to me, but then the game came out and it turns out there are more halo rings that everyone is cleaning up and also the flood was back. Disappointing. I don't know why we couldn't have something that actually felt "new". I was sold on the idea of the covenant finding earth and the ramifications of it, but the defense of earth was underexplored and not given proper weight. Plus, the extra rings, and the Covenant Hierarchy and exploration of their politics needlessly complicated the plot while not being that interesting and demystified some stuff that was better left unexplained. I warmed up to the Arbiter over time, but he was not someone you can identify with and project onto like Master Chief. Sometimes I think Bungie did not really understand why Halo worked.

      Man I miss the gaming community and how tight knit communities were and just in general how wonderful it was to see gaming grow and legendary sequels etc etc...
      It's ashame gaming has become a money cesspool and master chief is ruined... They should let it end imo... I will always remember the first three halos being the trilogy!!!

    If they ever make an SPV3 mod for Halo 2, it better have this whole sequence including the whole cut Marathon Infinity beta style level following it, expanded New Mombasa including both demo areas and ODST locations like what SPV3 for Halo 1 does, Forerunner Tank, everything SPV3 for Halo 1 has mechanic wise retrofitted for Halo 2's gameplay, drivable shadows including troop carrier ones in SP & MP, drivable _scarabs_ (Halo 2 model ONLY) and the conduit at the end of High Charity replaced with Black Dimund's restored cut Warthog Run.
    If they decide to add a new final chief level on the key ship to tie it to Halo 3, that would also be welcome.

      If the "final chief level" is as it was supposedly reconstructed a while back, I'm glad they left it out. It felt very cheap, especially after Halo 1's Warthog run and in retrospect Halo 3's.
      Halo 3's Warthog run already felt incredibly cheap and cheezy. Having them in all 3 games would be terrible

      @@Dennis19901 I didn't find it cheesy. The Guilty Spark boss I found too easy and out of nowhere though. I think the problem with the Halo 2 one is that there didn't seem to be a time limit like the other two, plus it couldn't be done on vanilla Legendary thanks to snipers and awkward fall damage when ramping the warthog off certain jumps near the start. All it needs is the stakes to be raised a little and the warthog run to be actually put in the normal High Charity level, replacing only the original conduit map at the end instead of the whole level like the current version does. That last bit does indeed feel a little cheap, but I gave it the benefit of the doubt as it least we _have_ it. It just needs the rest of the level leading up to it as well.

      @@lionocyborg6030 I'm sorry, but how didn't those large plates exploding and breaking away didn't feel cheap.
      1. They happen to always break away just right after you pass them What a coincidence!!!
      2. It's poorly textured any animated
      3. It's a copy-paste throughout the entire section of a handful of elements.
      It honestly feels like they ran completely out of time when they did this warthog run in Halo 3.
      I love the game, but that ending sequence is just really poorly done compared to the quality the rest of the game offers.
      I mean, compare literally any other level to that warthog section of "Halo". It's almost painful. It looks like a student project or something...

      @@Dennis19901 I think the idea is that those panels are supposed to be scaffolding for the ring, but you are right in that it's copy pasted a few times.
      However, while I can't say much for the animations, I never really noticed them as the panels actually do break away before and during you passing them too, in explosions, but you'd only see that on higher difficulties such as Legendary. On Easy and Normal. less of the panels blow and they're a lot more predictable, making it just as a cakewalk as you say. I used to play all Halo games on those two difficulties a lot, which is how I know.
      The rest of it collapsing into the void is slow but it does happen if you dawdle. That part is more noticeably cheaply animated as they just detach and drop off. It would have been nice for that to instead be the simulated physics destruction like in Source engine games (Half Life 2 Episode 2, Portal 2 and Black Mesa to be precise), with the scaffold warping and getting shaken apart like concrete highways during a particularly bad earthquake.
      I said I didn't find it cheesy partly because I still don't and partly because when I first played back when it came out on Xbox 360 I was 11, so anything bad about it was lost on me. I do admit with hindsight it could indeed have been better than it turned out, which is not that different to how I feel about a lot of my favourite games.
      Perhaps if they did the above idea for the collapse animations and interspersed it with some driving over unfinished areas recognised from the original game instead of just the empty semi-canyons of rebar panels and tunnels as in the final game; those should have been the transition points between said Halo 1 areas instead of the whole section. it would feel a bit more climatic that way, seeing areas you knew and loved from Halo 1 gradually fall apart as you try to escape. Maybe that's an idea for a mod on MCC PC.
      After all, SPV3 added Alpha Base from the Halo 1 book and the Warthog Run restore for Halo 2 showed it could work, though the latter needs a bit of tweaking to make it perfect as I said.

    • @Dennis19901
      @Dennis19901 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@lionocyborg6030 I don't understand why the plates and collapsing is really required. I understand the scaffolding somewhat, but even for that it looks cheap and unlogical too. Sentinels are the ones who maintain and construct the rings, they can fly, why would they need scaffolding?
      And the mountainous terrain of Halo Rings sure isn't going to get supported by the thin plates shown during that level.
      They could have as well added a timer similar to Halo CE, since there was an obvious time-able deadline (the firing of the Halo)
      And yes, first impressions are never a reliable measuring mechanism. You should revisit the game in the current time and compare the quality of the rest of the game to the second section of the last level. It's appalling almost.

      You were meant to enter the Covenant ship that way without the bomb, fight to the reactor core and nuke it with wraiths to blow it up. It would have served as Miranda Keyes' main introduction, though she would originally have betrayed you as in earlier drafts of the story, she blamed John for Captain Keyes' death, which is the only part of that cut level I could do without.
      Gameplay wise including the EVA sequence in the trailer, it was based on a similarly cut sequence in Bungie's older game Marathon Infinity aka Marathon 3.
      In that, the map "Naw Man, He's Close" would have had Marcus Jones (the cyborg protagonist of that game) propel himself from Tycho's ship to Durandal's the exact same way as Halo 2 was meant to have, before fighting along the hull and climbing a big tower surrounded by a liquid version of the thundrilium crystals from the good i.e. 2011 version of Thundercats (no, seriously. That's what the pink Pfhor slime was) to get into the ship. Then you'd spend a few more maps fighting to Durandal's core in order to destroy it. The map name and space BASE jump were a reference to the bridge scene in Apocalypse Now.
      However, the whole part was cut including the tower when lead writer Greg Kirkpatrick finished the design of the map (likely due to Forge/Weland's map space grid being too fucking small compared to Ion Maiden's version of Build or Brutal Doom ED's GZ Doom), so the map now begins with the player spawning in what I presume was meant to be the hull breach on top of the tower that they were trying to enter the ship by.
